I love those disaster movies! This a better than average one. Some ridiculous stuff (the acid lake), but over-all believable.

| Leonard Maltin/Plot synopsis: |
Formulaic but entertaining disaster movie about a scientist from the U. S. Geological Survey who sniffs around a mountainside town in Washington just below a volcano that he feels is going to blow at any minute. Along the way he falls in love with the town's mayor. Critics dumped on the first of 1997's two volcano movies, but hey--it ain't supposed to be Henry V. The characters are likable and the effects are completely convincing. Super 35.
